 RLDIts All About Choice. join:2001-07-05 North Richland Hills, TX | one acronym.... R.I.C.O. I firmly believe the *aa tactics would fall under the RICO Act if they were truly and honestly investigated. But, the lobbyists are not going to let honesty happen.
With the extortion to P2Pers, over inflated pricing for packaging, recording, marketing an so on forced on the artists (another form of extortion: "We know your art is good and can make a lot of money. So; here is 5mil to get you started but it'll cost you the rights to your music and this much for packaging, recording, marketing, and bribing radio stations to play your (sic) music. So, you'll make a good 50k a piece out of your art.")
Its amazing that we let these corporations, lobbyists, politicians, and ourselves keep drowning the people with feces from the septic tank. -- R.L.Dempsey Mac OS/X & Linux (by Choice) OS/2 Warp & eCS (for utility) friggin windoze (by necessity) |
